Expandable Ceramic Fiber Paper

TaoFibre ceramic fiber expandable paper is produced from a mixture of high purity ceramic fiber, natural graphite fine flakes, and organic binders through a fiber washing process. At about 1200 F (649 C), the paper expands up to maximum of 400% of its thickness. This feature serves as excellent material for gasket and sealing applications.

Typical Applications:
  • High temperature gasketing and sealing
  • Expansion joint insulation
  • Fire protection
  • Industrial furnace seals
  • Aluminum filtering bowl edge sealing
